RECITALS

WHEREAS, on or about January 27, 2022, the parties entered into the SPA pursuant to which Inotiv purchased Orient BioResource Center, Inc. (the “Company”) from Seller;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 7.7 of the SPA, a Parent Payable in the amount of $3,700,000 is due to Seller at the expiration of the Deferred Payment Period, which is set to conclude on July 27, 2025;
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and between Buyer and Seller set forth on Exhibit A (“APA”), which will be delivered in connection with this Amendment, Buyer and Seller agree to terminate that certain Contribution agreement among themselves in exchange for $78,000.00 net of withholding taxes, plus Seller will purchase certain assets from Buyer for a $387,000.00. The combined amount of $78,000.00 plus $387,000.00 equals $465,000.00 which will be applied as a dollar-for-dollar reduction to the balance of the Parent Payable not yet paid to Seller;

1.The balance of the Parent Payable not yet paid to Seller will continue to accrue interest at a rate of 4.6% per annum until January 27, 2026, when the entire amount of the principal and accrued, unpaid interest of the Parent Payable will be due and payable in full to Seller.
2.Immediately upon consummation of the APA, the balance of the Parent Payable not yet paid to Seller will be reduced by $465,000.00.

Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of any party to the SPA, nor alter, modify, amend, or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants, or agreements contained in the SPA, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect.
